Objectives
To develop and promote the game of basketball in the Tuggeranong Valley, and to facilitate the community to participate and enjoy basketball. With the growth of the Club over recent seasons, the Club is endeavoring to train all coaches, enabling all players to gain the most from playing basketball. The player base is also growing enabling the Club to field three teams in the junior elite competition in 2001. The Club is planning to enter teams in the senior elite competition within the next two seasons.

History
The Tuggeranong Vikings Basketball Club was formed in 1984. Over the past years we have seen our team numbers grow. Competition is played at the Tuggeranong Basketball Stadium and the Belconnen Basketball Stadium.

Competition
The main junior competition (the Championship season) is run over the second and third school terms of each year (April to September). A challenge competition is also run over the fourth and first terms. No matches are scheduled during school holidays.

Registration fees are set by the Basketball Association, and while these have increased over the years, players’ fees are generally subsidised through regular Club fundraising, and there is a discount for members of Viking licensed clubs.

The Junior Competition is graded into Under 10′s, Under 12′s Under 14′s, Under 16′s and Under 18′s for both boys and girls. The games are played over the weekend withtrainings occurring during the week.

The senior Competition is played from Sunday to Friday evenings.
